Chapter 1757

Victor immediately said, “We’ve caught Angus Wager and his underlings. They’ve been locked up and

can be interrogated at any time.”

“So?” Philip’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Was this not good news? Why did Victor say that something was wrong?

Victor looked at Simba next to him. The latter understood and said straightforwardly, “According to the

news from the scene, Angus admitted that the one who made the move was Hector Dunley. However,

Hector left Uppercreek in a car from one of his seventh uncle’s sponsors and is heading back to

Charbury. Moreover, according to the news we received, Hector’s seventh uncle is quite influential in

Uppercreek and knows many people.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Philip’s eyes burst into cold light. I-Ie stared at Simba and asked, “A

sponsor’s car? Why wasn’t it checked thoroughly?”

Simba helplessly glanced at Ross Hogan who was talking to his subordinates and said, “This matter

should be explained by them.”

Philip looked at Ross coldly.

Ross seemed to have just received a report from his subordinates. He walked over and said to Philip

and the rest, “According to the information we received, Hector Dunley has already gotten into one of

his seventh uncle‘s cars and left Uppercreek. Mr. Clarke, you don’t have to be agitated. Now that we

have evidence, we’ll definitely bring Hector Dunley to justice. Even if he escapes back to Charbury,

we’ll catch him. There are just some minor hurdles to be resolved, so please be patient, Mr. Clarke.”

Hmph!

Philip snorted and glanced deeply at Ross, who was in front of him, as well as Ada Sacha, who was

behind Ross. He said, “I can handle this matter myself. I don’t need your help. If you really want to

help, just wait for my orders.”

Ross’ face tensed as his expression quickly crumbled. He had never come across a victim’s family who

dared to say such words!

Who did Philip take Ross for? He even wanted to order them around!

Ada also had a cold look on her face at this moment. She stared at Philip indignantly and said, “Mr.

Clarke, I hope you’ll pay attention to your words. We are the city’s…”

However, before Ada finished speaking, Ross interrupted her and said to Philip, “We can understand

your feelings, but since we have taken on this case and it has also caused a lot of impact in the local

area, we have to follow up on the investigation. Even if you know a lot of people, we still hope that you

won’t take matters into your own hands and trust us instead.”

Philip was indifferent. He took out his phone, dialed a number, and said lightly, “Contact the mayor of

Uppercreek for me. I need their unconditional cooperation in arresting someone.”

“Yes, Young Master, I’ll arrange it right away.” On the other end, George Thomas’ cordial and gruff

voice was heard.

When Ross and Ada heard Philip’s arrogant words, their expressions slightly darkened. Ada really

could not stand Philip’s attitude at this moment. Who did he think he was?

Ross frowned and was about to say something when his phone abruptly rang.

He frowned and glanced at the caller ID. It turned out to be a call from Mayor Winter!

Ross quickly picked up the call and asked with a respectful and serious expression, “Mayor Winter,

what can I do for you?”

On the other end of the line, a stern and majestic voice said, “Ross Hogan, from now on, you will take

orders from Mr. Philip Clarke. You’ll do whatever he tells you to do. No matter what kind of cooperation

is needed, you must obey unconditionally.”
